Going into 2024, Dragon Age: The Veilguard was probably one of the most anticipated games of the year. This is a long-standing franchise with a lot of loyal fans who have been hungry for a new game since 2014’s Inquisition. It’s probably safe to say that for those fans, the wait has been a rather anxious one as Bioware has been sailing some tempestuous seas in the meantime.
Call it a Black Friday miracle, or EA feeling the burn of one of its biggest releases of the year receiving no nominations at The Game Awards, but the PS5 version has just taken its first price cut at Amazon. This brings itdown to $54 (was $69.99)just under a month after its official release.

Should you buy Dragon Age: The Veilguard?
(Image credit: EA, BioWare)
In preparation for this, I’ve read as many reviews as possible, and I’ve got a lay of the land for who might enjoy their time with The Veilguard, and who probably won’t. If you’re a fan of Dragon Age, Mass Effect, orBioware’s games more generally, you will probably enjoy this game, which we awarded a 4.5 out of 5 in ourDragon Age: The Veilguard review.There’s so much deep lore in this world that fans of previous games will love to dive back into, so if you’re a long-term fan who couldn’t afford a full-price game last month, you’ve been blessed.
At the same time, if you’ve been wanting an open-world, fantasy RPG to enjoy lately, but the idea of a game withhundredsof hours of quests and a never-ending map fatigues you, Veilguard might be perfect for you thanks to its approachable writing and fairly easy-to-pick-up gameplay. The main story takes the majority of players around 24 hours of gameplay to complete, and a completionist run will last around 60-70 hours.
The same is true of the other side though - even if there’s a lot of depth to player creation and the lore, a lot of complaints about the game have been focused on how the gameplay and writing can feel a bit shallow.
